Faces of Ground Zero

Can you believe it's been 9 years? I cannot.... that day still seems very real. Last year, I wrote this post. This year, I think it's nice to remember this day in pictures and thank our lucky stars that we haven't had an attack like this again *knock on wood.

These photos by Joe McNally are from the Faces of Ground Zero exhibition. I actually saw them on display at the Boston Public Library not long after 9/11. It was amazing to see these towering Polaroids, each with a short story about the subject(s) and their involvement on that day, up close and personal, with the shock of that day still buzzing through my body, through the country, and around the world.

I know, I can't believe it's been so long- damn. I remember that day so well as I think we all do. I just kind of thought about it for a bit and had a glass of wine and a discussion with my boyfriend. Next year will be quite momentous.

Hi Jaime, that is an interesting photo project, I've never seen it before. It has been so long. I was there, actually, and I just try to have a moment of silence, pray and sometimes talk to some NY friends as well. Thanks for remembering!

I can't believe its been 9 years & the fact that its still so raw in our memories is a testament that society will not forget. This past 9/11 I was actually working as a flight attendant & my co-workers were telling me their stories of where & how they were stuck elsewhere due to the no-fly & how one fellow co-worker lost her husband that day in the tower.
